SRI with stainless or ceramic....

I put an AEM SRI on my '01 EX (thanks Randy) because according to aempower's output diagrams it puts out better #s then their full on CAI for my car. I'm next going to do the header. I'm thinking either the Megan ceramic or the OBX stainless as they're both pretty much the same price.

Here's the question....W/o the heat shield, if I go stainless, will I notice a decline in performance given that the air sucked in by the SRI will be hotter? If so, I'm thinking I'd go ceramic to cut down the heat. Would either one really make a difference? Opinions?

Tough call, because you gotta also remember that the SS header will last longer then the ceramic one.
